While I do not want to cast any dispersions on the desirability of a notch
filter, I want to point out that the CW-Rev mode can sometimes help in these
situations.  I agree that it is not as good a solution as what a notch
filter can provide, but it will help in some situations.

I point this out not because I think that those who responded haven't tried
it, but because they did not mention it as one available solution.
